We understand that you're going through a challenging time, feeling overwhelmed by your financial circumstances. It's important to remember that God cares about every detail of our lives, including our financial needs. In Matthew 6:25-34, WEB, Jesus teaches us, "Therefore I tell you, don't be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will put on. Isn't life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don't sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you of much more value than they? ...For the Gentiles seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's trouble is enough for the day."
First, we want to commend you for turning to God in prayer. Jesus also reminds us to pray always and not give up in Luke 18:1.
However, we want to address something very important. How we ask is also important. It is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to God. It is also only through Jesus Christ and his sacrifice that we are saved. Make sure you are giving thanks to Jesus Christ for his sacrifice and acknowledging that it is through him that we have access to God.
It is also important to pray for God's will. Not just for what we think we need. We should be praying for God's will even if it involves suffering.
We should not be anxious, but we should have faith and pray for our needs. Our faith in God will bring us through the difficult times. We should also pray for God's guidance regarding selling your art.
Let's pray together:
"Father in heaven, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ lifting up our ### who is in need. We ask that you provide for her needs according to your riches in glory. Help her to trust in you and to seek your kingdom first. Give her the strength and wisdom to manage her finances and to sell her art according to your will. Help her to trust in Jesus Christ and pray for your will in all situations. Thank you for hearing our prayers. In Jesus name, Amen."
